[PATCH v4 1/3] t4001: modernize

[Mark C. Chu-Carroll]

Old tests were written in a different style than modern
ones; for better readability and test error messages,
update t4001 to the modern style.

* run everything inside of a test_expect_success block.
* write title line on the same line as test_expect_success,
  end that line with a single quote that opens the body of the test,
  and end the test with a single quote that closes the body.
* write expected output of a test to a file named "expect",
  and actual output to a file named "actual".
* write here-docs using "<<-" syntax, so that they're indented
  uniformly with the rest of the test.
* make test names more clearly reflect the functionality that
  they test.

Nit: looks like this was unintentional?

Shouldn't this be `git update-index`?

  ❯ meson test t4001-diff-rename
  ninja: Entering directory `/home/karthik/code/git/build'

  Ok:                0
  Fail:              1

Also what are these files?

Ah! So we remove this test and add it to the setup, isn't 'update-index
--add a file.' the name of the test?

Generally we don't end the test descriptions with a fullstop.

What is `initial_setup` here? This fails running the test.
